Reduced Costs
The department charge per impression (black & white) across campus for most machines is 3.9 cents.
Greater Performance and Functionality
All units are multifunctional and come standard with print, copy, fax, scan and duplexing (i.e. double-siding) capabilities, and operate at 45cpm, enabling departments to complete jobs much more efficiently.
Why Connect to Your Network?
There are several reasons why it makes sense for departments to connect the new machines to their network, which will enable the use of “print”, “scan” and “fax” capabilities:
- Printing on these multifunction devices is often more cost effective than printing off a traditional desktop laser printer.
- Scanning and emailing documents is faster, easier and cheaper than printing and sending hard copies (there is no charge for scanning).
- Networked machines can be monitored remotely for maintenance, reducing the need for staff to make calls requesting supplies and service.
- Enabling the fax functionality will eliminate the need for a separate fax machine and the related costs for repairs and maintenance.
